Dear English Subscribers,<BR>
<BR>
Thank you to the Year 12 V.C.E. teachers who recently showed interest in participating in my PhD research and to those I have already begun interviewing. I am still seeking more teachers to be involved. The interview dates and times can be arranged to suit you. Interviews in the holiday breaks are fine, if that is more convenient. The interviews are of 1/2 hour duration. Ideally interviews need to be conducted before term one begins, but again dates are negotiable. If this the first time you have encountered an email about the research, please read the original advertisement below,<BR>
<BR>
Once again, thank you to all who contacted me. I am looking forward to working with you,<BR>
<BR>
Regards, Bree

Invitation to V.C.E. English Teachers<BR>
</U> <BR>
</B>If you are a Unit ¾ V.C.E. English teacher in 2010 and you have previously taught the course, I need your assistance to be part of PhD research project in Education through Griffith University.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I am researching the teaching of literary texts within the two textual areas of the course, ‘Creating and Presenting’ and ‘Reading and Responding’. I am keenly interested in teachers’ stories of practice and I firmly believe in the importance of teachers ‘ own voices reflecting academic research.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Your involvement requires participating in 3 iseperate nterviews, each of ½ hour duration over the course of three terms, beginning late term 4 (negotiable) 2009. These interviews can be arranged at a time and location convenient to you. <I>Please note, I am happy to conduct interviews in the holiday breaks near the scheduled terms if that is easier.<BR>
</I> <BR>
If you are interested in participating or would like to know more, please contact Bree Kitt at <a href="kitt.bree.r@edumail.vic.gov.au">kitt.bree.r@edumail.vic.gov.au</a> or 0409389253<BR>
